[-- Attachment #1 --] All, I recently found out that man-pages installed by tcllib tend to conflict with those installed by other packages. An example is devel/tcl-trf, which provides C-based implementations of several chan-transforms which are also available as pure Tcl modules inside tcllib. My proposal is to modify tcllib so that its man-pages have a common .tcllib suffix, similar to what we have done for lang/tcl8[4-6] and x11-toolkits/tk8[4-6], which have .tcl8[4-6] and .tk8[4-6] suffixes. A patch to do that is available here: http://people.freebsd.org/~gahr/tcllib-mansuffix.diff Apart from this change, I also introduce the DOCS and MANPAGES OPTIONS to turn on/off installation of, respectively, HTML docs in DOCSDIR and man pages in MANPREFIX/man/mann. I have had to rework a bit the installation procedure, so that the provided installer.tcl is directly called with the right arguments. Some man-pages already had a tcllib_ prefix. As suggested by Andreas Kupries (upstream), I removed the prefix from those. If there's no strong argument against it, I plan to commit the patch next week. Thanks for your feedback!
